can't find digi pictures i have saved

[Guest]

I am trying to print some pictures saved on my computer. When I open the
folder that has them and look at them as a thumbnail view, I can see all of
my pics. The problem is that for ONLY ONE of the pics, double clicking on
the thumbnail gives me a large window with a different picture. I really
need access to both pictures and have tried lots of stuff to get them each
individually.
1 - filmstrip view gives me the same issue... when the picture I want is
highlighted, the large picture does not match the thumbnail.
2 - double clicking the thumbnail to view in Microsoft Photo Editor...
again, I get the second picture.
3 - I am setting hyperlinks from an Excel sheet to display these pictures...
using the filename of the thumbnail sends me to the other picture when I
click the link.
4 - number 3 reminds me... checking out the properties of this .JPEG file
from both right cliking on the thumbnail of the correct picture and right
clicking on the wrong picture in Microsoft Photo Editor show me that BOTH
pictures have the same file name.
5 - I highlighted the correct picture in the thumbnail and tried a Print
Screen and pasted it into Microsoft Word... surprised to find the wrong
picture again.
6 - I tried renaming the files from both the thumbnail and the large picture
in Photo Editor, but this only replaces the correct picture in the thumbnail
with the wrong one.

How can I get at BOTH of the pictures seperately???

All of your messing around may have prevented any real help at this point.
Try deleting the thumbs.db file in the folder where the picture(s) in
question is/are (disregard the ensuing system file warning). Then close the
folder and open it again, and see what happens.

Dear Mr. Johnson:
I am new to this site so please excuse me for jumping in like this if I have
not used proper protocol. Your answer to "colin" solved one problem I have,
but I have another that perhaps you can help with.
When I first put pictures onto the computer from my KodakEasyShare DX4530
Digital Camera, I did not know that I needed to take the pics out of the
camera before taking more and putting THEM into the computer. Therefore, I
found that I had duplicates in there. I did see different dates, but the
picture names were the same. Therefore, I thought that I could delete some
of them, which I did. HOWEVER, I deleted some that I did not have duplicates
of and then I cleaned up my recycle bin. I have a Norton Security System
2005 with a Norton Protected Recycle Bin. I wonder if there is any way that
I can get these pics back especially since they still show up on my screen
when I click "entire collection". When I click on one of the photos, the
computer tells me that they are either moved or renamed. I have tried
everything I can think of. I also have a message in to Kodak, but they have
not answered yet.
I would really appreciate any help you can give me.
Thanks so much

Sorry to be a late in getting back here. Your post isn't clear. Did you
delete pictures from the camera or from your hard drive after they'd been
copied there? If the latter, the Norton protection should allow you to
recover the files. If you deleted them from your camera, you also might be
able to recover them. Go here: http://tinyurl.com/3frl8 and download PC
Inspector Smart Recover, a free program that will allow you to recover files
from your camera card if they haven't already been overwritten.

In the future, it's best to copy images to your hard drive, be sure the copy
was successful (try opening the pictures) and only when you're sure the
copies are good, delete the files from the camera, using the camera's delete
controls.
